WALNUT CREEK -- A candlelight vigil in memory of those who died in Friday morning's massacre at a Connecticut grade school will be held at 7 p.m. tonight in front of Walnut Creek city hall, 1666 N. Main St., at Civic Drive.

Organizer Ashleigh Montgomery of Walnut Creek said mourners are asked to gather in front of city hall main entrance, and to stay on the sidewalk. Participants are asked to bring their own candles.

Parking will not be allowed in the city hall parking lot, but is available in nearby parking garages on Broadway and near the Dean Lesher Center for the Arts, and at metered curbside spaces on adjacent blocks.
